Abstract
A new generation of Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs) is intended for high data rate and mul-timedia applications. The MBOA WPAN system, which is standardized by the Multi-Band OFDM Alliance (MBOA), is able to provide data rates up to 480Mb/s over a short distance based on the Ultra-Wideband (UWB) frequency band as well as support the Quality of Service (QoS) for both isochronous and asynchronous traffic. The MBOA system has been considered as one of the most potential solutions for the Physical layer (PHY) and Medium Access Control (MAC) of the next generation of WPANs. In addition to the high PHY data rates, the MBOA system provides also high MAC efficiency, especially for the high speed burst transmission and frames of small size. In this work we concentrate on the analysis of MBOA MAC layer efficiency via calculating the Theoretical Maximum Throughput (TMT). Both the numerical results and simulation results using the WARP2 simulation environment are presented for the efficiency evaluation of MBOA MAC.
